An exploration to the key, yet often overlooked, relationship between Jane Austen and her father and how it inspired her writing.

Jane Austen Daddy's Girl: The Life and Influence of the Revd George Austen is a poignant and pertinent examination of a relationship which became the cornerstone of Jane's life, the bedrock of family and faith as she knew them.

Our epic journey through the life and times of the Reverend George Austen will lead us from his early childhood and humble beginnings as an orphan, through his schooldays and on to Oxford University, and beyond. We will follow his career in the Church of England and as master of his own boarding school, as well as peek into his marriage and home life.

Dovetailed in with this revealing biography is a thorough interpretation of fatherhood as a theme, as outlined in Jane's novels, with scrutiny of the fathers of all her most beloved fictional families. Chapter by chapter we will understand more about Jane's own view on fatherhood and how the Reverend Austen, as her father, coloured and created that view.

As we draw George and Jane's relationship closer to us, we understand anew the many layers of clever meaning that Jane Austen interlaced within her stories. Through an examination of this unique father-daughter bond, Jane Austen fans everywhere can pull up a footstool in George's library and become further united in spirit with their beloved novelist.
